DIED. , The infant of Mr. and Mrs. Otis Rich, died Saturday night about 11 o'clock after an illness of two week. The little one suffered with spinal meningitis. The funeral was held at Charlotte church Mon day morning. Nina, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Otis Rich, of South Asheboro, wag born June U, 1904, and fell asleep May 20, 1906. It is natural for parents to regard their own children lovalile and winning, but it is the common verdict of all who knew Nina that she was unusually sweet and lovalile. Counted by our imperfect way of reckoning time, her stay on earth was brief, but who can. tell but what she has lived more than some who reach their three score years anil ten. The sweet influences set in motion by her beautiful and tender child life will bless the world and leave no corroding care to spoil the holy aspirations awakened in the lives of all who loved her so. We laid her to rest in the cemetery of Charlotte Methodist Protestant church, where many gathered to take part in the last sad rites, ami left her little body to rest beneath a fragrant billow of (lowers) while the gentle sunshine kissed into beauty the little mound where she sleeps. That spot is sacred to the sorrowing parents and Uodalso will watch her sacred dust. Life is not now what it wns In-fore, but as we come so near tho trembling veil that ob scures tin' great beyond we almost bear the rustle of a wing, and the straining eye can almost see the "l,nved one in Glory looking this way." Tho warmest sympathy of the entire eoimmmily goes out to these dear par ents in sorrow, lint it is a joy to know that while our eyes are dimmed by tears to-dav, Kina is lxhlding the beauties of heaven in the light, "of the unclouded day." May the consolations of the grace of God sustain the parents and all who so keenly feel the loss. A Friksh. W. (i. Davis, a prominent citizen of Ophir township in Montgomery county, died May 13th, 190G, after an illness of several months of can cer on the face. Mr. Davis had beeu to Baltimore on two different occa sions and had surgical operations performed, but the cancer returned and Mr. Davis lost all hope and gave up in despair. His age was 61 years. He was a prominent citi zen and a brave Confederate soldier. DEATH OF MRS. BETTS. Strlikrn With PnrnlynU While Dei-ending Steps of Front Porch. Mrs. M. L.
